Hi you all!!

I'm so glad I can blog again today. I have tons of wonderful work for you to show. You will be blown away, I guarantee!!

The first two layouts are created by Larissa. The layout called 'Ain't Love The Sweetest Thing' was created with the Sugar Cookie collection.

She added an ice cream and acrylic paint to create the idea that love melts her heart....how romantic!!

Her other page 'Be Merry' was created with Happy Holly-Days. She did a lot of layering, cut out images and use paint.

Amazing layout Larissa!!

DT member Mahlin also created two amazing layouts.

Layout: Allt (Everything)She took the cute Trick or treat smell my feet- paper from the Boo-tiful collection and cut out the insides from all the circles.. Added some different papers from other collections to the insides..Supplies used: Patterned papers from My friend birdie, something for everyone, Tree love and Boo-tiful, Black Burlap Buttons and some great wintage brads from Creative Charms.

Layout: Dröm (Dream)She took my cute Butterflypunch and made a whole bunch of butterflies from 3 different pappers.. and then sewed them onto my layout.. She likes how she can get the wings to look more dimensional this way.

Our DT member Mette created a super fun layout! She used Sugar Cookie Collection and Creative Charms Brads.

Lea created some amazing Christmas and Winter projects. You should really try them out!!

She used the Happy Holly-Days collection to create some amazing give-away boxes!

Anna has some amazing layouts for you. Her first layout puts you into a real Christmas mood!

She used the Happy Holly-Days collection.

Her layout 'Thankful' is so sweet and soft. Don't you think? She used the Something for Everyone collection. I love the fact it matches the photos perfectly.

Janis also showcased the Something For Everyone collection. She blew me away with these amazing layouts. And I guess she will blow you away as well!!

LoganDesign Notes: I had fun lacing up the "For Trish" Die-Cut paper (made me think of corsets!!!). I cut up the paisleys from the "For Lanie" paper and formed them into flowers!!! The paisleys were topped with the circle stickers from the Cardstock Sticker Sheet and a light blue Cool Cord Brad.

Lover Boy and I Heart MayoDesign Notes: Love these brads from Creative Charms!!! These are two layouts proving that even boy pages can be glammed up using these beautiful brads by Creative Charms!!

And of course I also have a layout to share. I used the Sugar Cookie collection with this layout. I love the colors and the girly look!

Well, that's all for today. I think you will have enough inspiration to start creating!!

Have a nice day!

hugs

Hilde

I love Larissa's use of paint in her lo's, Mahlin's use of color and the visual effects she achieves. I love Mette's use of shapes, Lea's pleated flowers, Anna's uncluttered, simple lines. I love Janis' gorgeous lacing and ingenius use of the diecut papers. Love the stitching and distressing on Hilde's design. Also love the pink floral ribbon running across the page.

I love the give away boxes created from the Happy Holly-Days collection by Lea! those look perfect for giving out Christmas goodies to everyone. I also like the corset lace up on the Logan layout created by Janis. I need to get the Sugar Cookie Collection! Really Cute!

Gosh, I love all of it!I love the heart banner on the first LO; the sideways trees/Nutcracker & fun stuff on the 2nd; the frame around the photo on the 3rd; the butterflies on the 4th; the circles on the 5th; the papers used on the fun boxes in the 6th and 7th photos; the fun photos and flower on the 8th; the paper, photos and beautiful flower etc. arrangement on the bottom left on the 9th; the offset circle and photo on the 10th; the paper and circle frame on the 11th; the pop of red on the 12th; the heart and ribbon rose on the 13th! YOU asked! :-) Great work!

Great layouts Ladies! And I should mention "Ain't Love The Sweetest Thing" by Larissa: my hubby was behind me while I was reading your blog and when he saw this LO he asked me "can you do something like that with our photo?". Wow, you really touched his heart :) I never though he pays attention to my hobby LOL Thanks!

How so you come up with the ideas? So creative. Really liked the "corset". Mahlin must be Swedish, would have loved to read her journaling. I liked how coordinated all the layouts are. Great product line.
